- the agent applications (or simply agents) 214 may be configured to service a received call or message on behalf of the user, autonomously, without interaction with the user, or substantially without interaction with the user.
- the agents 214 may be designed to determine the service context, on receipt of a call or message to be autonomously serviced. As described earlier, each agent 214 may be configured to determine the service context, on receipt of a call or message to be serviced, based at least in part on some of the data 222 collected about a user, internal operating conditions (system status) 224 , and external environment 226 . Further, each agent application 214 may be configured to thereafter autonomously service the received call or message, based at least in part on the determined service context.
- cellular phone 100 may employ a number of data collection modules 112 to collect and store the data 222 about the user, the internal operating conditions (also may be referred to as “system status”) 224 , and the external environment (also may be referred to as “External Data”) 226 , and the collection may be locally and from the Internet.
- cellular phone 100 may be provided with one or more sensors 203 in assisting in the local collection of data 222 about the user (User Data), internal operating conditions 224 (System Status), and/or external environment 226 (External Data).
- collecting and storing data 222 about the user may include one or more of collecting and storing data about the user's current context, e.g., whether the user is at home, at work, or neither, the user's current status, e.g., whether the user is busy or available, the user's calendar, the user's contacts, the user's to-dos, and so forth.

- the services layer 210 may also be configured to route a received call or message to one of the applications 214 - 216 in application layer 208 to process or service.
- service layer 210 may also be designed to perform additional services including, for example, voicemail recording, smart filtering of unwanted communication, or the like.
- agents 214 may be programmed with decision logic (or decision logic trees) of varying levels of complexity. For example, a decision logic may be to simply ignore, forward, or route all calls to voicemail when the user is at work. The decision logic may be refined such that all calls are ignored, forwarded, or routed to voicemail when the user is at work except if those calls are from a certain person or if the user is at her desk versus in a meeting.
- the decision logic may be broadly categorized into “contexts” (e.g., work, home, vacation, etc.), which may be triggered in certain conditions.
- the agents 214 may be explicitly and/or implicitly programmed to autonomously service a call or a message.
- Explicit programming may entail explicitly specifying the desired behaviors and the conditions for triggering the desired behaviors.
- the cellular phone 100 may be endowed with a graphical user interface (GUI) or the like to facilitate the programming interaction.
- GUI graphical user interface
- another computing apparatus may be explicitly programmed with the desired behaviors and then the cellular phone 100 may be synchronized with the other computing apparatus.
- agents 214 may be implicitly programmed to provide the autonomous services. Implicit programming may involve passive learning by the agents 214 in which a user's behavior is observed by the agents 214 and/or by explicit hints provided by the user.
- An example of passive learning could be a situation in which the agents 214 has an alarm function and it is observed that the user only uses the alarm on weekdays and turns off the alarm function on weekends.
- agents 214 may learn to turn the alarm function off on weekends on its own, without requiring the user to explicitly set the conditions.
- behavior may be adapted in some embodiments only after a degree of certainty has been achieved (e.g., more than one or two actions may be required before it is considered a “behavior”).
- agents 214 may be configured to record the autonomous services provided into a log, and the log may be periodically submitted to an external analysis service for analysis and to provide feedback to the agents. In turn, agents may self-modify their processes in determining the current service context or self-modify the manner in which a call or message is autonomously serviced based at least in part on a determined service context. In various embodiments, agents 214 may be configured to self-modify current service context determination and/or autonomous service based on a determined service context periodically.
- FIG. 3 illustrates various examples of autonomous servicing of a call of various embodiments.
- cellular phone 100 may receive a call 330 through the wireless communication network 102 from another phone 328 , which may be another cellular phone.
- service layer 210 may route the call 330 to one of the agents 214 (as opposed to the traditional telephone application 216 ).
- the agent 214 may determine the service context at the time, based at least in part on some of the data collected and stored about the user, the internal operating conditions and/or the external environment.
- the agent 214 may autonomously service the call 330 e.g., by letting the call 330 ring through, routing the call 330 to the traditional telephone application 216 , routing the call 330 to a voice message service (not shown), and so forth.
- cellular phone 100 may receive multiple calls 330 from multiple other phones 328 at the same time.
- agent 214 may determine the service context by determining the callers, the relative priority of the callers, based at least in part on some of the data collected and stored about the user, the internal operating conditions and/or external environment. Thereafter, agent 214 may route or otherwise dispose the various calls 330 based at least in part on the determined service context. For example, when one of the callers is determined to be the boss of the user, and having priority over all other calls, the boss' call may be allowed to automatically cut in, replacing a lower priority current call, which may be put on hold.
- FIG. 4 illustrates various examples of autonomous servicing of messages of various embodiments.
- cellular phone 100 may receive a message 432 from a remote computing apparatus 430 a , an appliance 430 b , or a device 430 c of another type.
- the remote computing apparatus 430 a may comprise a mobile electronic device such as, but not limited to, a mobile phone, a laptop computer, or a personal digital assistant, or a substantially stationary computing apparatus, such as a server, a desktop computer or the like.
- the remote appliance 430 b may comprise a home appliance, an entertainment or gaming system, or an audio system.

- the device may be the message sending apparatus itself.
- agent 214 may determine the service context, based at least in part on some of the data collected and stored about the user, the internal operating conditions and/or external environment. Thereafter, agent 214 may autonomously service the message 432 , based at least in part on the determined service context.
- the interaction with the remote apparatus may include, but is not limited to, an agent 214 monitoring, controlling, obtaining information from, managing data, or otherwise interacting (e.g., receiving and/or transmitting data) with the remote apparatus.
- the remote apparatus may be monitored and data may be collected regarding the monitoring and/or the user 104 of cellular phone 100 may be alerted or interrupted in some manner conditioned on the occurrence of an event on the user's cellular phone 100 .
- the alerts 436 may be conveyed visually, e.g., through blinking lights, audibly, e.g., through audio beeps or other means.
- controlling of the remote apparatus may be conditioned on the occurrence of an event on the user's cellular phone 100 .
- the remote appliance 430 b may comprise a home appliance or an entertainment system, alarm, while the other device 430 c may comprise a medical device, which may be monitored and/or controlled by the user's cellular phone 100 .
- the user's cellular phone 100 may autonomously monitor a medical device 430 c (e.g., a pacemaker, a glucose monitor, etc.).
- the user's cellular phone 100 may be further configured to send a message 434 to control the medical device 430 c to perform some action in response to some condition (e.g., alert the user 104 if heartbeat or glucose readings are abnormal).
- apparatuses, systems, and methods for autonomous service on a cellular phone may be integrated into a work-flow, perhaps in an office-type environment.
- incoming requests received on the cellular phone 100 may be autonomously delegated 452 to another entity or device 450 , sometimes on the basis of recent or long-term activity efforts.
- the delegation 452 may be addressed in a way, due to heuristic rules or statistical models, to facilitate work objectives. This may allow the user 104 to save time in explicitly reading the request and then delegating it out. This may also allow work to be performed more quickly in that the work may be immediately delegated instead of being contingent on some intervention by the user 104 .
- the cellular phone 100 may be part of an infrastructure in which information may be exchanged between various appliances 430 b and cellular phone 100 , which may allow coordination between the appliances 403 b and cellular phone 100 .
- a message 434 including a command may be issued by the cellular phone 100 to instruct an audio system 430 b within the infrastructure to reduce in volume or mute in response to an incoming call to the cellular phone 100 .
- Autonomous service on cellular phone 100 may be used for various social networking applications.
- the user's cellular phone 100 may be configured to determine the status of the remote computing apparatus 430 a and take some action for facilitating social networking between the user's cellular phone 100 and the remote computing apparatus 430 a (presumably a “friendly” computing apparatus).
- the user's cellular phone 100 may be configured to detect a stimulus including a request from the remote computing apparatus 430 a and take some action for facilitating social networking between the user's cellular phone 100 and the remote computing apparatus 430 a (e.g., providing a message 434 having information regarding the location or status or the user 104 ).
- the user's cellular phone 100 may determine whether the remote device 430 c is located nearby, and if so, may alert the user 104 . In some embodiments, the user's cellular phone 100 may determine a calendar schedule of the user of the remote device 430 c and store data regarding the calendar schedule on the user's cellular phone 100 . In still further embodiments, the user's cellular phone 100 may alert (e.g., by text messaging 434 ) the user of the remote device 430 c that the user 104 is nearby.
- Autonomous service on cellular phone 100 and interaction with the remote apparatus, appliance or device 430 a - 430 c may be used for management of data stored on the user's cellular phone 100 .
- Data management may include storing or backing-up of data from the user's cellular phone 100 onto the remote device 430 c .
- the user's cellular phone 100 automatically determines (via one of the agents 214 running in the background on the cellular phone 100 ) that the user's cellular phone 100 has data to be backed up or has data for storing onto the remote device 430 c .
- the user's cellular phone 100 may proceed with the backing up of the data from the cellular phone 100 onto the remote device 430 c by sending messages 434 containing the data to be backed up to remote device 430 c .
